Has anyone gotten Hulu/ Xfinity TV to work on the Prime? I've updated to ICS with no problem, just wondering if Hulu is working. If yes, is root required? Maybe I should just chill and wait for a Rom?
Thanks guys.
Xfinity TV seems to be working for me. Just tried changing the channel and it went fine.

I should have been more specific.....I was wondering about watching tv and movies over Xfinity website, like Hulu.
To watch hulu.com you have two options:
Buy flash video browser ($2) from android market
Or
In themes and apps there is a hulu flash mod (root required) , I had this mod working on hc but ics upgrade borked it, gonna retry later tonight and see if it works

Thanks for the input...I bought the Flash Video browser, but it does not work with the Xfinity website.
ok update: the hulu/flash mod in themes and apps section works! (need root)
went to hulu.com and vids play,
i have dish which uses slingbox app so cant test xfinity.

So I tried this on my tab and I only get audio. Funny thing is that it doesn't work on my DROID at all. Cool think is that the website works fine via standard browser. Watching mib over wifi right now in 480p

Btw if anyone wants the app to mess around with it let me know and ill throw it up.

droxid,
Could you upload the apk for it.
So this is the app that I got off the market and sideloaded on my tab.

My issue is that I get audio but no video. Let me know what you guys get.
On a side note....video through browser works flawlessly.
audio works but picture doesn't.
Has anyone had any luck with this?
Works fine in just the browser.
There is a new version showing up in the market for Honeycomb tablets.... but it won't allow me to download it. Says it's a "developer test".
I read an article that it's now available for the Asus Transformer. Hmmmmm. Wonder where.
Also, it's advertised as coming with the new Sony tablets.
Hello All,
Has anyone gotten Hulu to work on Honeycomb? If so, which modded version of Flash did you use? What browser and settings?
I am currenly using Flashback ROM Alpha 5.5 (Android 3.0.1).
Does anyone have information on when Netflix will be available for
Honeycomb?
Thanks,
Paul
I have not tried it yet but netflix updated today to support a tegra 2 hc Lenovo tablet.
try it and let us know.
Do you know where I can find the app (.apk) to try this? It's not in the Market yet.

no sorry I do not
I installed the Modified Netflix app where the device check is disabled.
I am able to see Available movies, My Queue etc properly.
When I try to watch a video, I receive the following error:
Sorry we could not reach the Netflix service. Please try again later. If the problem persists please visit Netflix.com (1005).
How about Crackle? I have the app on my G Tablet and it keeps saying it has been disconnected. What do I do?
Newest netflix update works on honeycomb gtab now

Great!! Where can I download it? Not available on Android Market. Unable to download (due to device type) on market.android.com.

Edit: I can not confirm if this works, as the app says overloaded and will not fully load on my gtab running GtabComb b3.2
Edit 2: It works! The video quality isn't the greatest but it works. woot

Crackle works on my CM7. But no go on Flashback or Gtabcomb. With the Flash from the market on the HC ROMs, I get only audio and with the hacked flash the app starts to play the video and then backs out, just like it did initially when the Netflix app came out.
I will try the .apk and let you know what I find out...thx
I am running gtabcom 3.2, puffin browser, and flash 10.3 from the market. It works great on hulu, not sure on nextflick.
Netflix Works on Flashback Honeycomb ROM Alpha 5.5!!
The video is a little blocky when watching the first 10 - 15 seconds. After the video caches a little, video quality is quite acceptable.
Here is the link to the .apk: http://www.multiupload.com/XTEWL8CLCZ
Awesome!!!
Can't get hulu videos to go full screen, but at least its working. Thanks for the info.
Gtabcomb 3.3 runs the market netflix app perfectly.

if you do a search in the forum I think someone posted the netflix apk.
Hulu and Netflix
Don't have any experience with Netflix, but Puffin browser with Flash from the market will play Hulu videos. But Hulu videos are choppy for me. My 2cents worth.
It works!
I confirmed this app works on vtab GE edition. Thanks a bunch for the link from droidlife!
I am at a loss here and hope someone can give me a hand. No video playback on any of my devices.
tested on so far.
Droid1 running 2.3
Incredible running 2.3
Thunderbolt running 2.2
Galaxy Tab running 3.1
AppleTV2 running whatver pos latest os is on there
my server is a Windows Home Server 2011. my router is a D-link 4500
Port 32400 is open to UDP/TCP also
tested playback on mkv,avi,wmv,mp4 and streaming plugin with all failing
no errors just dont play,
any help would be epic at this point..
are you able to access "http://homeserverIP:32400/manage/" on a desktop other than the home server?
The phones you listed, is that just stating what firmware they have or that they are streaming with that firmware?
Custom ROMS have been known to have issues, for instance, I stream no problem to my stock Captivate with 2.3.3 installed, but I have an issue streaming to my Galaxy Tab 10.1 with TW... (funny thing, both are leaks from Samsung not custom ROMS)
More info about the devices your trying to connect with might help.

I don't think many people run plex here. I only had an issue with getting plex working was when UPnP was enabled. I disabled the service and did the firewall settings and enabled it again, been working no problem since.
With as many devices you have trying to get working, you might be better off going to the plex forums and inquiring there. http://forums.plexapp.com/
I've read through before and they do not support custom roms, only stock. And as for the galaxy tab with calkin's, it does not work for me either but it does on stock honeycomb and the first KFC touchwiz release. I am hoping the new official touchwiz will work out of the box. Good luck!
I confirmed wont work w/ TW you happen to have a link to get me back to stock 3.1 US rom? i look in dev section and get overwhelmed lol

Yeah which version? The only one that worked for me was KFC release. So if its KFC based then its the Euro ROM and I am only interested in the US release.
I tested KM7 and KG8 and both did not work for me, but it did on my Captivate phone.

Yep, I have the KFC - Euro Rom. I plan on flashing back to stock tomorrow, in preparation for the update. If the update breaks PLEX... imma be pissed.

I haven't found a format it can't stream I have tested extensions *.mkv, *.divx, *.avi, *.m4v.
It did have some troubles with mkv that had DTSHD as the audio, but they have released two updates since and I have't tried again. I set all audio to downmix to stereo to help with keeping the bandwidth down.

Since updating to UEKM7 on my tab, Plex no longer plays videos for me. Music still works. And I was never able to get my tablet to connect to Plex from outside of my network (no issues with Splashtop & Playon).

Yup, same here other than KFC. Waiting for the new TW to release to see if it works on there (crosses fingers)
do you think it is as simple as the netflix issue and just a lib has to be swapped out?

Best part is, if you have 1080p mkv, it'll stream also that well without any issues.

really? I have no lag on my tablet and phone.
Alright so as everyone knows, Hulu doesn't allow you to stream when you have a rooted phone, so is there an updated app that has been modified to work with a rooted phone? haven't seen a new version lately, thanks!
Don't think anyone has modified the apk, you could try using the modified flash apk that's supposed to let you stream hulu in browser
Damn, alright. that's like the one down side of being rooted-- no hulu and no google play movies.
I have a LG Phoenix running CM10 Thrive ROM. I know the rom wasn't meant for the phone but it works fine. The only issue I have is with YouTube. The app does not play videos and forces close most of the time. I tried several fixes but none worked. Please help! I think I have to install a codec, any help with that would be appreciated.
Search and install an older version. It Will work

Tried Youtube 1.0, 2.3 and 3.1. None worked. The integrated player for the ROM doesn't work for online flash videos either. It just skips to the end and won't play.
